Authorizes the Secretary of the Interior to: (1) investigate, plan, construct, replace, manage, operate, maintain, or otherwise provide for public use and enjoyment of project lands, facilities, and water areas in a manner coordinated with other project purposes; and (2) modify or expand existing facilities.

Requires: (1) amounts collected for admission to or recreation use of project land and waters to be deposited into a special account in the Fund; and (2) at least 60 percent of such amounts to be used at the site from which the fees were collected.

Authorizes the Secretary to: (1) investigate, plan, design, construct, replace, manage, operate, and maintain recreation and fish and wildlife enhancement facilities and services; and (2) acquire or otherwise make available adjacent lands or interests for public recreation or fish and wildlife use.
